Game of Thrones Alum Cast as Charles Manson in Aquarius

Once, he fancied himself the true king of Westeros. Now he'll be leading a different set of followers.

Gethin Anthony, who played Renly Baratheon on Game of Thrones, has landed the role of infamous kill-cult leader Charles Manson on NBC's upcoming "event" series, Aquarius.

Aquarius, the 13-episode miniseries about a Los Angeles police sergeant, Hodiak (David Duchovny), who starts tracking a small-time criminal and budding cult leader named Charles Manson, was announced this past March.

The Wrap also reports that Grey Damon (Friday Night Lights) and Emma Dumont (Bunheads) have also joined the cast. Damon will play Duchovny's cop partner on the series while Dumont will be Young Emma Karn - a woman who goes missing after joining up with Manson.
